Tahoe Rim Trail





Yesterday, Frank and I hiked along a portion of the Tahoe Rim Trail.

To reach the trail head, we drove up the summit of Kingsbury Grade to an elevation of 7,475 feet and parked behind the Stagecoach Express ski lift. Turns out a new motor was just installed and the lift was being tested.

Walking around the ski lift loading station, we headed up a steep path which eventually led us to views of the Carson Valley, about an hour into the hike.

From points along the trail, many of the ski lodges were visible.

The weather for our hike was perfect, cool and dry.
